These people aren't moronic, they just consider the impact we are having on the environment more important than whatever you consider more important. They would rather see people using less energy to power their big tvs and multiple computers, rather than building more power stations of any variety.
Whether you agree with them or not, I would suggest that you are the moron for not being able to understand that people have different values than yourself.
And while I'd love to point fingers and laugh at the USA, trust me, it's no better in Europe.
And even worse in the non-western world. A sad state of affairs. But most people don't want to live in the real world, they are much happier living in their fantasy world, with a god who watches over them, and will provide true justice.
Yeah, lay of it, I mean, you are going to make millions, but still...nobody want it, so lay off.
It is becoming embarrassing to say you actually enjoyed any of it. Ever.
Depending on who you hang with, it has always been a little embarrassing to say you like them. I mean, sure I liked them, but they weren't great masterpieces. Much more like the Mummy or early Batman than the dark knight.
Functional in that they do what they do very easily, they function very well. Sure, they can't do as many things as other products like the Nokia N800 or N95, but what they do, they do better and a lot easier.
What is your definition, or are you just being the classic anti-Apple wanker?
Yeah, that is why Apple products are easier to use and more functional than anything else around. And I don't even use them, but not for some made up stupid reason.
Yes, it is almost as if Slashdot is made up of distinct entities, with different ideas and opinions, rather than some big bodyless mass. Yes, I find this view of the world confusing as well. well I did when I was 3 years old, but i got over it.
If it isn't illegal than that culture should have passed laws to protect itself or should enlist the government's aide in ensuring their values are maintained.
Wow, i can't believe that somebody actually wrote that. This is absolutely disgraceful that you think we should have laws about simple polite conduct. My god, are you kidding around of just thick.
What you say is true, but each time we have made these comparisons, they have been vastly more useful than the previous comparisons. They have helped us to understand the brain more, and come up with things like electroencephalograms, and brain wave detectors.
Even when we make comparisons to a computer today, we understand that we may be off, and there probably is more to it. It is just useful for us to do so.
Maybe you could learn to read then? Linux penetration is not 2.8%, Linux sales for that last period was 2.8%. not the same thing at all, unless everybody just ditched their PC and bought a new one.
You realise you are talking about a company as if it is a person, with memories and learning. IBM is made up of a bunch of people, hopefully they have learnt from the past, but there is no guarantee about that.

Look mate, there are 3 types of people in the world, those that can count, and those that can't. Which type of person do you think you are?

Why is a supreme being excluded, tucked away in some comfortable pocket safe from rational inquiry?
Because just like unicorns and fairies, it doesn't exist.
For fucks sake, lay it off for a while.
Yeah, lay of it, I mean, you are going to make millions, but still...nobody want it, so lay off.

It is exactly the same with passenger planes. Leave the passengers & flight crew at home, and you can make a vastly faster and cheaper plane.
Seriously though, if they didn't put windows in passenger planes, it would a lot cheaper and structurally safer.
To be fair, how long has the iPhone SDK been out, and how long has DX been out? It is a much more mature product.
Functional in that they do what they do very easily, they function very well. Sure, they can't do as many things as other products like the Nokia N800 or N95, but what they do, they do better and a lot easier.

Sometimes these rumours turn out to be true, despite the protestations of the company. There are many examples out there, iphone, banks, etc...
What would make a phone lose audio but not SMS ability?
If you can't think of the reason, then I would suggest that you are probably at the wrong site. Fox news is that way -->
Wow, do you really have locks on the rooms in your house? I find this to be quite an alien concept as well.

didn't realise they had time travel in the us. Say hi to Moses for me.

Welcome to the internet.
Just like in the cartoons.
Yes, because if elephants are animals, then all animals are elephants.
Theoretically, Referees shouldn't have any influence. They do, because people cheat.
There, fixed that for you.
Must be a statistician.
Stolen = -1 laptop
returned = 1 laptop
therefore, there never was a laptop.

Sounds exactly like the sort of thing that should be handled by a computer. Do you really think mistakes don't happen with manual processes?
Bit if an actual Linux expert are we?
Maybe you should start RTFM!
